Ace got dressed in his usual outfit and drove out with Shaw to Andrew's place,They got there.

“Wait here,I'll finish the job” Ace said to Shaw after they parked in their normal spot,he left the car and approached Andrew's door. He knocked.

“Hey Andrew open up!” Ace yelled as he banged the door,The door opened and Ace walked in, “welcome dude” Andrew said and hugged Ace.

They both sat Down, “so how's work, Greg's still in town” Ace asked, “Yep he's still here” Andrew replied.

“Good ” Ace said.“If I may ask Ace, how do you plan on killing him” Andrew said “don't worry about that, I have a perfect way of getting in his office without being spotted” Ace said.

“if you say so,you want anything,whine,alcohol?”Andrew asked and stood up.

“I'll take alcohol ” Ace replied,“my man,I think the little time you spent outta town has really exposed you” Andrew said.

Ace smiled. he left the room and went to his friedge, took a bottle of alcoholic drink and proceeded to his kitchen where he took two glass cups and filled them.

“I'll be right there honey! ” Andrew said sarcastically, “ok!!” Ace answered. He came back with two filled cup moments later,He droped both a stool sitting in-between his chair and Ace's own.

“Here you go” Andrew said and handed a cup to Ace. He took it and pretended he sipped something, He droped the cup on the small table near Andrew's cup.

“That's your mother in that photo” Ace said and pointed to a picture frame hanged on the wall,“uh?,oh that's my grandma,she died a while ago I really miss her” Andrew said staring at the pictures.

Ace took his drink and sipped some,Andrew took his and emptied it. “sorry about that” Ace said, “It's no big deal...At least you can help me say hi to her in heaven” Andrew said.

“Excuse me” Ace said .

“sorry Ace,but I told boss you are in town and he paid me some couples of dollars to get rid of you finally,and I added poison to your drink” Andrew said.

“What!,I trusted you” Ace yelled,He brought out a gun he was hiding in his pants and pointed it at Andrew.

“hey..It doesn't have to end like this, just drop the gun and we can talk about it” Andrew said,“talk about what,after poisoning me” Ace yelled at him.

“I'll kill you and...” Ace paused and coughed a bit,he collapsed on the floor holding his stomach and groaning,“This is not the end, I'll get you!! ” Ace said,There was silence in the room for some seconds.

Andrew looked at Ace who looked dead, he stood up to go dispose the cup. “Hey mister...,” A voice said,He turned around looking shocked and scared,“Who's that,Ace are you dead” he asked staring at Ace body.

He suddenly saw Ace body move a bit, Then suddenly jumped up,He moved away in fear.

“Hahaha,you expected me to die easily, Am not dumb,and I don't trust people complety,I didn't drink from the cup you gave me,I exchanged it with yours” Ace yelled, Andrew was shocked and couldn't still believe his ears.

“How the..wait,If you drank from the other cup that means I..”,“yes, you about to die in 3,2,..” Ace was counting when Andrew suddenly fell to the ground holding his stomach and groaning hard.

“you.. can't kill Greg.. He's.. gone” Andrew managed to say before giving up the ghost.“Gone where”, Ace asked kicking his corpse, “oh,he's gone already, what a shame” Ace said and went out.

He walked to his parked truck,and entered, “so,how did it go” shaw asked him.“He's gone,we gonna sweep his place of his valuable stuffs first before burning everything down!” Ace said.

“oh great let's do it ” Shaw said exitedly.They went to Andrew house and took all they could find,foods,wristwatches, few clothes and lot of money,Ace finally set the house on fire with Andrew's supercar.

“He died in a fire accident, just like nothing happened” Shaw said,“yeah,exactly” Ace replied.

They got in the truck filled with some stuffs and drove of quickly from the scene.

There was tension in Houston the next day, Every news channel was talking about it. There was a report of a burning house.

“Hey Jane just called and told me she saw it on TV” Shaw said to Ace who was resting in his room, “Haha,good” Ace said.

Ace stood up and left the room,Shaw followed him outside, “So,what are we doing today” Shaw asked,“Stop asking what we'll do every time I wake up dude ” Ace said to him.

“Alright..Alright ” Shaw said and sat on a log,“Well,I have something in mind ” Ace said.“what type of weapon are you good at,Ace asked, “Hmm..I like RPGs, hand grenades..” Shaw was saying when Ace cut him off.

“We're not going for a war dude,we won't need those” Ace said,“How about a sniper rifle,Have you tried one before” Ace asked.

Shaw shook his head, “follow me” Ace said and went in,Ace took him to the empty room and pushed the table off the entrance of the underground, He opened it and walked in with Shaw.

They roamed till they got to the room filled with weapons, “Holy shit!!” Shaw exclaimed when he saw the number of guns there,He went around around touching the guns.

“Hey pick this up” Ace said pointing to a sniper rifle laid on a shelve, “christ!,its so heavy” Shaw exclaimed as he picked the gun up,“move it to the room I'll join you” Ace said to him.

Shaw took the gun and carried it out slowly,Ace looked around the room and took some bottles and a pistol,he went to join Shaw,he met him sitting and holding the gun.

“common lets go” Ace said and walked out holding the bottles and a pistol. Shaw carried the sniper and quickly followed him,They went to a safe distance from the house.

“wait here” Ace said and continued walking for some while,He moved few metres from Shaw. Then dropped the bottles and arranged them on the ground and went back to meet Shaw.

“so all you have to do is shoot the three bottles” Ace said,“i can't do that they are too far away.Ace shaked his head in disdain. “move” Ace said and pushed Shaw away from the rifle, “you see this,its a sniper scope,you can adjust it with this” Ace said and pointed to the part.

“got it!” Shaw said,He laid down and positioned the rifle, He looked through the scope and saw the bottles and fired!. “What the fuck was that,you weren't even close!” Ace yelled.

“Get off let the expert do it” Ace said,Shaw stood up and Ace laid down, he targeted the bottle and shot it,it shattered into pieces.

“wow,you're good at it, where'd you learn to use it” Shaw asked. “i told you I was an arm dealer, we use to shoot guns on Saturdays for fun,to check the best shooter,I was one of the best” Ace said.

“its your turn now ,you should line you'd target first before shooting ” Ace said,Shaw laid and tried again he shot and got it.

“yeah baby!!” Shaw jumped up, “don't get too comfortable, hit the last bottle” Ace said,shaw laid down again and hit it.

“few more practices and you'll be a pro ” Ace said and laughed. “ok so..” Ace was saying when Shaw phone suddenly rang, Shaw stood up and picked it,He walked away from Ace a bit, He talked to the person for some while and came back.

“Who was it” Ace asked him as he came back,“it was my friend from home,he called to check on me” Shaw said.

“whatever so..” Ace was saying when Shaw phone rang again,“Seriously dude, am gonna put a bullet right through your phone" Ace said angrily.

“it's Jane” shaw said, He picked it,“she wanna talk to you” Shaw said and handed the phone to Ace. Ace walked some few miles from Shaw and talked to Jane on the cell phone, Shaw couldn't hear what they were talking about,Ace soon finished and came back.
